  2. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    The US data is collected and compiled into an annual evaporation map. [4] The measurements range from under 30 to over 120 inches per year. Formulas can be used for calculating the rate of evaporation from a water surface such as a swimming pool. [5] [6] In some countries, the evaporation rate far exceeds the precipitation rate.

  3. Pool fire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pool_fire

    The heat release rate is limited by the rate of evaporation of the fuel, as the combustion reaction takes place in the gas phase. The evaporation rate, in turn, is determined by other physical parameters, such as the depth, surface area and shape of the pool, as well as the fuel boiling point, heat of vaporization , heat of combustion , thermal ...

  4. Salt pannes and pools - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_pannes_and_pools

    A shallow and wide pool will evaporate at a greater rate than a pool of the same volume of water which is deeper and has a smaller surface area. Evaporation rate also affects salinity, the higher the evaporation rate the higher the salinity, with rates as high as a third greater than ocean water.

  5. Accidental release source terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accidental_release_source...

    Accidental release source terms are the mathematical equations that quantify the flow rate at which accidental releases of liquid or gaseous pollutants into the ambient environment which can occur at industrial facilities such as petroleum refineries, petrochemical plants, natural gas processing plants, oil and gas transportation pipelines, chemical plants, and many other industrial activities.

  6. Anchialine system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchialine_system

    Evaporative pumping by the pool brine (EP): The pumping effect buffers evaporation. Under extreme evaporation, the salinity is much higher than water in mud. The salinity difference reverses the osmotic pressure and releases the low salinity water (freshwater or seawater) into the brine. Thus, it slows the rate of salinization.

  7. Evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporation

    Evaporation is a type of vaporization that occurs on the surface of a liquid as it changes into the gas phase. [1] A high concentration of the evaporating substance in the surrounding gas significantly slows down evaporation, such as when humidity affects rate of evaporation of water. [2]

  9. Evaporite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporite

    Thick non-marine deposits that accumulate tend to form where evaporation rates will exceed the inflow rate, and where there is sufficient soluble supplies. The inflow also has to occur in a closed basin, or one with restricted outflow, so that the sediment has time to pool and form in a lake or other standing body of water. [5]
